What causes tea-colored urine?

The color of urine reflects a person's health. Healthy people have light yellow urine. If the color changes, it may be a sign of disease. Men's urinary and reproductive systems are prone to disease, so the color of urine can be used to judge the health of the urinary and reproductive systems. Different urine colors reflect different health conditions.

What are the reasons for tea-colored urine?

If your urine is brown, it is important to consider the following reasons:

First, whether the patient drinks too little water or sweats too much, causing excessive water loss. The urine extracted by the kidney function produces a dark brown color and has a brown appearance. At this time, the urine sediment can be checked to observe the urine specific gravity and other related indexes.

Second, when there is bile disease, the bile's passage to the liver is blocked and it can only be excreted in the urine. The urine is dark brown due to the increased content of total bilirubin in it.

In addition, acute nephritis, renal function compression injury, large area burns, severe anemia, and even excessive exercise may cause the urine to be soy sauce color, similar to brown. At this time, corresponding tests such as urine sediment are required to confirm the diagnosis.

1. Urine turns yellow

There are many reasons why urine turns yellow. If you drink too little water, your urine will turn darker. If you drink enough water, but your urine is still dark for a long time, you need to consider whether there is a problem with your liver or gallbladder. Liver and gallbladder diseases cause the body's total bilirubin to be too high, which will cause urine to turn yellow.

2. White drops after urination

If the urine is like rice washing water and has sediment, it may be related to more serious prostatitis. White droplets after urination are typical symptoms of prostatitis. If this happens, seek medical treatment as soon as possible.

3. Dark brown

If the urine is dark brown, it is also known as soy sauce urine. Such urine is related to some serious diseases, such as acute nephritis.

Because the kidney function is affected by inflammation and excessive worry occurs, the urine will appear dark brown.

4. Urine is emerald green

If you take antiviral drugs, your urine will appear green. If the urine is greener, it means that the urethra is infected by special bacteria, and green purulent bacteria grow in the urine, which will cause the urine to appear green.

5. Red urine

If the urine is a little bright red or dark brown, the bleeding site should be in the kidney function. If hematuria appears at the end of defecation, it is called terminal hematuria, which means that there is a disease in the urethra or bladder neck.

If it is red, it is more likely to be a tumor or stone in the bladder, a male prostate infection, or urethritis. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for examination immediately and pay attention to hygiene to prevent infection.
